Crews at the scene confirmed police were looking at two vehicles in the area. One car parked at the AM/PM with bullet holes, another car just east of the gas station was filled with evidence markers.

Cal Fire crews were called to the scene at 9:37 p.m.

A witness told KESQ & CBS Local 2’s Lauren Coronado she saw two people transported to the hospital.

“The first ambulance came by very quickly, they were loaded and off. There was no stabilizing, there was no CPR going on. It was on the gurney and out of here lights and sirens and they were out of here quickly,” said Christy Pohlmann, a witness of the incident.

Marshall confirmed the two victims sustained gunshot wounds. One victim sustained minor injuries. The second victim remains in the hospital in an unknown condition.
